Hungarys PM has had a law approved that allows him to rule by decree indefinitely

There has been a call from. The former Italian pm to. Kick em out the EU

Some see Hungarys draconian powers as as part of a wider pattern in Eastern Europe

Bulgaria
Serbia seeking to join the EU

It is not clear what the EU can do (if any thing) to. Rein in the leaders of its member States

EU commidionar president ursula von der leyen said

It is of the upmost importance that emergency measures are not at the expense of our fundamental principles and values

And Putin, zing jing ping or whatever his name is, the little fat fella and OH NO TRUMP. What is the world coming to.
 
I thought the EU could tell these countries what to do. So Hungary can take back control whilst still part of the EU. Interesting.
 
The EU project will be facing some tough questions

As Frances EU minister said

The EU should not just function when times are good

As deaths Mount in Italy and Spain the EU met to consider if there should be financial support for countries hardest hit

The Corona bond where country's could borrow with the debt quaranteed by the other members

That was rejected by the Dutch Germans fins
The Spanish Italians and even the French are not happy

Unless the EU club can demonstrate that membership adds value in a crisis it will. Not be a surprise if people begin to question what the EU really means ;)
 
It has been extraordinary the extent to which EU states have failed to. Help one another out

It has been China
Russia :eek:

Cuba

Who have sent medical supplies and medical personnel to. Italy

The European Union parliament has overwhelmingly voted to censure Hungary over alleged “breaches of the EU’s core values.” The vote triggered the “Article 7” procedure of the EU constitution, paving the wave for economic sanctions and other punishing measures.

The EU parliamentarians voted 448 to 197 in support of a resolution that accused “Hungary of threatening the rule of law by hampering press and academic freedoms, cracking down on NGO funding and denying rights to minorities and migrants,” European media reports said. Parliamentarians cheered and applauded at the read out of the vote. It is the first time the punitive article has been triggered by parliament against an EU member.
